Out Comes The Bunting & Balloons!

It works better if you plug it in - Sattinger's Law

Welcome to my Thursday 😌

One day to go until my hubby's Birthday.

He has his Hawaii 5-0 last year!

Sunshine time!

We did all Heardles.

Heardle 60s was:

Time for brew and breakfast.

Dressed.

Out of the sunshine...

Big big sunglasses time.

Gives hubby a sloppy wet one before I leave.

I get my newspaper before the Summer coat goes on.

Summer coat goes on.

The road works are still there.

More fun expected.

Puts on my lights.

Now to Rock 'n' Roll...

Soon both sides of the road are blocked.

One parent comes out of the road up from me.

Instead of crossing with me, she drags her child over the road in moving traffic, and does the same on the way back!

(Yet she crosses with me in the afternoon!)

I had to give out a few BOINGs as they got through the traffic lights and no intention of stopping for me!

My younger brother went past me in his van,I just didn't look at him, I kept staring down the road.

Finished in one piece.

The coffee morning is on a bit later↓

I leave Sexy Beast in the car park.

First stop was some bits from the Co-op.

Chats with a former customer for half an hour.Even his wife was looking for it.

I shouts up to her,"Give him an hour to repeat what I said to him!"

Next stop was a visit into the Charity Shop.

Picked up a bargain for £5.

When I got to the Coffee morning, I asked,"If I could buy the whole Chocolate cake?"

The answer was yes for a donation.

Donation paid, put cake into a  Heros plastic box.

I also bought 3 pieces of cake to take back home.

I meanwhile had a coffee with cake :)

My friends arrived who I chat with in the afternoon.

More rabbit to do...

We all had a go on the raffle.

After my second cup of the coffee, we left.

See you all later I said.

Back home.

Time to blow up some balloons...

One son already had his cake!

Finds the bunting to put up in the garden.

Then it rains....

(Will put it up when I get back!)

Salad time.

Now out for part 2!

Puts on my summer coat.

Then puts on my lights.

It still is raining!

The hole has been filled in, and has been covered in tarmac.

However the traffic lights are still there.

One friend arrives and we stay under the shelter until it stops.

We carry onto the square for a chat,

Then my other friend arrives and now it's time for a little rabbit...

One of the pupils from the High School was waving a great big Pride Flag.

I gave him a smile.

I heard him say,

"I am getting a lot of smiles from people, when I wave the flag!"

I said goodbye to my friends.

Let's hope it's better that this morning.

Nope!

Cars just doing the Limbo Dance under my stick.

One BMW nearly has her car ariel ripped off by going under my big stick!

One red car had stopped in the Keep Clear Space.

I needed to cross some parents over with pushchairs. When she saw me coming over the road, She mouthed, Oh F**k, and reveresed her car back, so the parents and kids could cross over.

One girl came home to find her mum had put balloons and a Birthday Banner on the front door.

She was not best pleased with it!

Still the cars were failing to stop. It got to the point, where nothing was moving either sides.

I was glad to finish in one piece. 

Back home.

The sun is out.

Time to put up the bunting for Birthday boy!

I then put the tea on.

Hubby came home and was very impressed with how the garden looks....

Now to give him a sloppy wet one 💋

Tea is served.

Yum.

Quick look in today's newspaper.

Friday Feeling is back!

 
 

 

 

 


 

 

Wearing It For The First Time!

Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes - E W Dijkstra

Welcome back to the Friday Feeling 🎈

I woke up to reveal I had red panta eyes...

A little bit of concrete filler soon sorted that out!

I got up before the alarm,

Downstairs I went to enjoy a early tea..↓

 

 Hubby got up after the alarm went off.

He joined me downstairs for more tea and breakfast...

Kids got woke up,

I got dressed...

(Nice red t-shirt)↓

I blew hubby a 💋

& 

Gave my kids plenty of sloppy 💋💋

Now to leave the house↓

 

 *The toe tag...(new lanyard name tag)

 gets put on for the first time!*

Nice view while I wait to put on my lights↓

 Oh dear,

One lady driver took offence to me stopping her, she left half of the tread on the road when she pulled off!.

Some cars didn't even stop,

One car was racing up the High Street,

He slammed on his brakes as my stick was over the other side of the road.

He may have slammed on his brakes,

But his car kept moving!

I finished in one piece!

Then off for coffee,chat, and nibble! 

 I got my B3 space!

 Nibble time↓

  I had a good yak with my friend..

Then I had to fly off for my job...

I waved goodbye...

&

Sung all the way there..↓

 I even had time to look in the newspaper↓

 Jim Croce, American rock vocalist (Time in a Bottle), would have been 77 years old🎈

He died aged 30 in 1973.

Final look across the fields of fun↓

 

 

 I had a big red face,

Even redder than my t-shirt.

Back on the road again..↓

Back home↓

 

 Nice pie for late lunch↓

 I blew a 💋 to my hubby.

Back to the lollipop job.

*The toe tag was put on again*

Oh dear,

The low lying sun is back↓

 Now we have the carnage,bedlam and chaos ensued.....

Car drivers were failing to stop!

One car driver stopped,

While I was still in the middle of the road,

She put her foot down, and nearly took off my arm that was holding the lollipop stick! 

The car driver behind the woman that didnt want to stop, just shook her head.

Bad day for not stopping!

I finished in one piece.

I gets home,

Gets changed,

Off to the Happy Place Of Work.

I found the missing bathroom spray....

It was being used to clean desks!

(Not done by me!)

 The full moon was up in the sky when I finished↓ 

 Hubby made a pie \o/

Really nice!

Now down to do the final job of the week..

My dad was vastly improving after being on a drip for most of the night.

The low blood pressure is worrying...

I was so tired...

I had a nice piece of cake...

With some sleep tea....

I was soon fast asleep before 10.30pm!
